Is a home battery right for me?

How does a battery work?

Solar panels convert sunlight into energy, however this needs to be used during daylight hours. Batteries store unused energy generated by solar panels, with the excess available once the sun goes down. This means reduced electricity bills for households with solar and batteries and less demand on the grid as your household stores and uses more energy independently.
